The headlining item for today! Watching somebody freak out about Sonic 4’s physics is way more entertaining in French. You don’t have to know the language to understand what he’s saying, as it is stuff that has been said time and time again. Skip to the 4:40 mark when he starts playing the game and wait until he jumps for the first time. Then, le merde frappe le ventilateur.

I’ll agree. Constant going back and forth to talk. I’d rather have watched him stand in place. And just…ugh. He goes through the level SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSOOOOOOOO SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY.

Actually, that would mean “The physic is unbearable”. The problem is, “La Physique” is single, but “sont terribles” is plural. They could either say, “La physique est terrible”, if referring to one particularly annoying physic, or “Les physiques sont terribles”, if referring to two or more annoying physics, like they often do. Other than that, pretty cool update! Excusez mon “nitpicking”, s’il vous plait!
